Abstract

The invention discloses a needle-free electrostatic spinning assembly based on fractal structures and provides an electrostatic spinning technology which can effectively improve the fineness, uniformity and yield of nanometer fibers. The needle-free electrostatic spinning assembly is characterized in that electrostatic spinning heads are formed by using fractal structure units, and the electrostatic spinning heads of different types are obtained through the fractal structures of different forms; different-scale continuous production of the nanometer fibers can be achieved by adjusting the specification and number of the spinning heads of the fractal structures and the working width and length of the spinning heads. The needle-free electrostatic spinning assembly has the advantages that thespecially designed spinning heads of the fractal structures can improve the field intensity and the distribution uniformity, improve the fineness, uniformity and yield of the nanometer fibers, the phenomena that in an existing needle-free electrostatic spinning device, the field intensity is low, the energy consumption is high and the field intensity is nonuniform are avoided, the spinning voltage can be effectively reduced, the cost can be reduced, the energy utilization rate can be improved, and industrialized application and popularization are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrospinning technology, in particular to a needle-free electrospinning component based on a fractal structure. Background technique [0002] As a branch of nanotechnology, electrospinning nanofiber production technology has developed rapidly in recent years. This technology uses the electrostatic field force formed by the applied voltage to stretch the spinning solution droplets, and as the solvent volatilizes, the polymer solidifies to form nanofibers. Electrospinning methods are generally divided into two categories: needle-type and needle-free. Multi-needle electrospinning is a general term for a type of capillary or slit extrusion electrospinning technology, including multi-needle, multi-nozzle, and multi-spout hole electrospinning technology, which was once considered to be the first method to realize the large-scale preparation of nanofiber materials. It is an effective method, but the transverse Coulomb repulsio...
